One of the best.
5/5


I recently went on a trip with Hekima Tourist Company and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and they went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the trip was enjoyable and hassle-free.

The itinerary was well-planned and allowed us to see all the major sights in the area without feeling rushed. The accommodations were also top-notch, with comfortable and clean rooms that were conveniently located near all the attractions.

What really stood out to me was the attention to detail that the company put into every aspect of the trip. From the transportation to the food to the tour guides, everything was thoughtfully planned and executed to perfection.

I would highly recommend Hekima Tourist Company to anyone looking for a well-organized and enjoyable travel experience. They truly exceeded my expectations and I can't wait to book another trip with them in the future!

This was an experience of a lifetime thanks to Richard!
5/5

My group and I came to visit for a week and from the airport pickup to drop off on the last day we enjoyed. Richard was very pleasant and knowledge. We had many things we wanted to experience and he was patient with us and made provisions for us to see everything. He communicated well and made sure that we were safe. It felt as if we had known him all of our lives. He provided us excellent customer service and always made sure that we were please. We definitely will be back and we would not travel there with another else but HEKIMA Safaris!

Caring and Inspiring Hiking Crew
5/5

We enjoyed every minute of our amazing trip from the slopes of Kilimanjaro to the Ngorongoro Crater! The hike was hard and we would never have made it to the top without the kindness and assistance of the amazing crew members. Guides are highly qualified and knowledgeable, cooks are amazing and globally the whole team is caring and stimulating. We appreciated all the nice gestures they thought of.

We also hired Hekima for our 2-day safari after the hike: organization was great and the hotel that were selected were amazing with a special mention for Melia Ngorongoro.

We highly recommend this TO should you decide to climb Kill and doing safaris.

Excellent Game Drive
5/5

I had an amazing experience with Hekima Safaris. Very friendly and hospitable staff. We went to Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. In the end was a relaxing boating on the lake Duluti. It was so wonderful to see everything that had seen in National Geographic and other channels in real. Like just in front of your eyes, sometimes very close. We saw baby cheetahs, hunting lions, rhinos, a funny honey badger and a lot more. We did not see a leopard, but it's a game drive, not a zoo, right? Next time! Good meal, nights in the tents under an awesome starry sky included.
Thanks to great driver Samir, chef Marcus, Elieza, Jackson and others!
Highly recommended!

Fantastic safari experience
5/5

I had a fantastic 4-days safari with Hekima. Our tour guide and driver Sam is experienced and friendly. He took us to spot dozens of animals and also made our journey full of fun by storytelling his unforgettable experiences of safari. The chef never failed to fulfill our appetite. We went to tarangiere and seregenti national park, as well as ngorongoro, the views were diverse and breathtaking. The Hekima staff at Hekima house treated us as family when we were back from safari. Eliza is young passionate entrepreneur, I was really inspired by his story of setting up Hekima safari.

I enjoyed even minute of the safari with Hekima
5/5

I booked a 5-day safari and a couple of nights at the Hekima House (hostel). On the day when I arrived, I felt very welcomed imminently. Every moment all the guys who work at Hekima try to make the experiences as good and suitable for you as possible. Even after the safari, we watched the Lion King together, played cards and they took us out to the party.

I would recommend this company if you enjoy being with a nice group of people and don't mind camping. Even if you want something that their standard program doesn't provide, just email them to see what the options are. They will find a way to make it work for everybody.

Amani Adam made the safari amazing!!
5/5

I suppose that most of the safaris try to achieve the big 5. If they do, they could be happy about it. But in our case, it was not just to be able to complete the big5 (so we did). What made the safari REALLY AMAZING was how Amani Adam (the driver) was able to integrate all of us in the car, telling us stories, showing us the behavior of the animals, celebrating our goals, being focus all the time in finding other kind of animal to explain us about it. I think a safari could be good or not, but because of Amani, our one was really really GREAT.

Ask for Benson - He is the best!
5/5

We had an awesome safari through Hekima. We went on a five day trip starting in Tarangire with a day of Game driving, then we went to the Serengeti (quite a long drive there, but that's how it is) where we went for an evening Drive after arriving, finding plenty of Lions and a lot of other cool animals. The day after we did a full day of Game driving where our Guide and Driver (Benson, Great guy) found us all of the big five before we had lunch. the Day after he said he'd try to find us some Cheetahs, and he did. He had a great reaction aswell as he was very quick to follow alongside the Cheetahs when they suddenly started running. The last day we did a morning Drive around Ngorongoro where we tried to find the Rhinos, but they hide quite well in the bushes there. (Which i didn't know they could seeing as they are so huge). To make the day end on a high note Benson brought us to the Hippo pool in Ngorongoro, which looked a lot nicer for the hippos than the one on the Serengeti (they actually had space to frolic in the water).

Also, the Chef Marcus made some great meals for us, and was just full of cheer.

Overall we had an amazing safari and would love to go to another park in Tanzania, with Benson as our Guide.

Great tour and organization!
5/5

We booked the tour directly with Hekima. Everything was safe and secure. At some point we had to reschedule due to emergency and there were no problems with that (no penalties). Although, the tour was booked as a group, there were no other people joining, so we had a de-facto individual experience. We are very happy that the tour was not cancelled due to the lack of people. The tour experience itself was very unique authentic - like coffee tour with local people. They really wanted to share the culture with us, not to sell something. The key part of the tour was real hunting with Hadza people - that was something one of a kind! They were able to catch a wild cat, cooked and ate it immediately. This something that you will not see on any other tours. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. The accommodations were very good (we had a room with jacuzzi on one night). I am highly recommending this tour and company, especially if you want to see Africa beyond safari!
